It is the purpose of Epworth Preschool and Daycare, Inc. to provide an enrichment program for the two years before a child enters kindergarten. Therefore, it is our policy that a child entering the three-year-old program must be three years old by August 1 and children entering the four-year-old program must be four by August 1. Our four year-old program is also open to the younger five year-old who will not be going to kindergarten that school year.

With its Preschool Program Epworth promises to:

• Provide a quality two-year preschool experience
• Encourage parental/family participation by asking a family member to help in the classroom two weeks during the year
• with families to instill children with SELF ESTEEM - the quality needed to make each child feel important and special
• Actively encourage children to develop a broad range of skills
• Live God's love. Epworth Preschool does not have a "religious" curriculum but does believe God's presence is felt through its dedicated and loving staff
